    • Convert upstairs bedroom into bathroom?
    Bathroom Specialists - 11 answers

    Hi everyone. I’m hoping someone can help with our query. We have four bedrooms but one is a small box room. We would like to convert the box room into an en suite for the guest bedroom. The door would need to be relocated to the other wall. It could easily fit a toilet/sink/shower in the space. Can this be done fairly cheaply (but professionally)? How much money should we be putting aside for this?

    Can I paint my decking with Ronseal fence paint?
    Gardeners - 7 answers

    Hello, Does anyone know if it is okay to use Ronseal’s fence paint on decking? They’re both for wood and are pretty similar, but I don’t want to risk ruining my decking. Any advice would be great thanks! Greg

    Painters & Decorators - 11 answers

    Good afternoon. I’m going to be painting over plaster in my hall, stairs and landing. We want to keep the space light so we’re going with very pale blue paint. How many coats of paint will I need to cover the plaster? How long between coats of paint should I wait before the next?

    I will need 3 internal doors measuring, supplying and fitting. They are probably different sizes as it’s an old bungalow. I would like a quote please.

    A rodent has chewed wires, can I put electrical tape around it to fix it?
    Electricians - 12 answers

    A mouse or rat has chewed the parts of the jacket layer off some appliance cables in the garage. Is it safe enough to wrap electrical tape over the gaps to fix them? Or what can I use instead of electrical tape?

    How should i drill through tiles?
    Handymen - 35 answers

    Hello, I am looking to install some small bathroom fixtures, toilet roll holder, towel rack, etc on the walls of my bathroom. The walls have already been tiled, so I want to be sure that I can drill through correctly without getting any damage to the tiles themselves. I have been told that using a low torque setting for a drill and using masking tape around the tile can be an effective way. How would be the best way for me to drill through the tiles? Thanks

    Where to buy a kitchen from?
    Kitchen Fitters - 13 answers

    Where is the best place to buy a kitchen from? I have looked at a variety of places (B&Q, Wickes, Wren ETC) and they all vary massively on price and quality. I am looking for something mid range, likely in a high gloss finish. Is it better to purchase myself and then hire a kitchen fitter?

    How Can I Fix Stiff Door Locks?
    Locksmiths - 10 answers

    My front door’s lock has become very stiff recently when I try to turn the key in it to unlock it. However, it doesn’t seem to bad when locking the door. I’d like to solve this soon so I don't get locked out. It seems to have gone worse over time and is now consistently stiff, despite the door and lock only being a few years old. Is there anything I can do to make the lock a bit looser? Or is it more likely that I need to replace the door’s lock? If anyone has any ideas for what could have caused this, please let me know – as I don’t want any repeats of this in future.

    Can I use plasterboard walls in a bathroom?
    Plasterers - 9 answers

    Recently I have had renovations in my bathroom, which included the installation of a plasterboard wall which is right by the bath. Tiles were fitted to the plasterboard with an adhesive it seems to have been done very neatly and correctly but I am concerned if plasterboard is okay to use so close to the bath without waterproofing beyond the tiles themselves. The last thing I want is a structurally unsound wall of tiles right next to my bath. Is this usual to have tiles fitted to plasterboard walls like this or should I bring this up with the bathroom fitter who fitted the wall?
